Wednesday Winners

This week's Wednesday Winners nearly didn't turn up! Busy schedules and blogging technical difficulties stood in a our way but we persevered as we would never let you down!

Naomi's picks:





Topshop Aztec Padded Gilet £55
I saw this in Topshop on Saturday and it reminded me of Christmas and Alaska. I've never been to Alaska but I'm sure this would be a well needed wardrobe item.

Ted Baker Tingey Oversized Floral Printed Top £69
I  love this top. It has cute features including the floral lined neck and sleeves, a floral back and the tiny intricate petals on the shoulder. The petals remind me of Chelsea's amazing wedding dress - see the "About Us" section for a picture!

Lace Collared Playsuit £48
Lace - check, collar - check. I'm turning into Chelsea. The back impresses me the most - it reminds me of another friend's wedding dress!

H&M Jacket £34.99
I love sparkle and so this jacket obviously stood out to me. I will have to go to H&M to see this in real life to make sure it is not tack central! This is totally a Christmas dinner jacket. This is the second time I've mentioned Christmas. Crikes.

Topshop Embellished Cage Vest £36
I think this top calls for a tan! I like the 'cage' design and the smudged pattern.  It looks floaty - good for those dinner and drinks evenings!

Chelsea's Picks:

This week I've gone for a pretty ecclectic mix of items - hope you like!



1. Next Berry V Cut Peep Toe Shoe Boots (£35)

I have been on a quest to find a pair of black high heeled shoe boots to replace my beloved ASOS Tweedy ones that I wore into the ground before they were discontinued. Whilst browsing I came across these fro Next. I will continue the search for the perfect black shoe boot but in the meantime these ones, in the colour of the season, will keep me going. I love the deep V at the front and the peep-toe adds a bit of a dressy touch.

2. Ted Baker Paage Tapestry Print Short (£89)

I really love the print on these shorts. If you go to the website and zoom in you will see that the print is almost pixelated, a sort of cross-stitch effect (probably why they are called tapestry). Wear with black opaque tights to carry you through winter!

3. Mango Printed Photo T-Shirt (£14.99)

I really like the design on this t-shirt and can well imagine, as I have said, wearing it with some indigo skinny jeans and the Next shoe boots for a rock chick look. I like that it is sleeveless and for £14.99 it's a bargain too!

4. Monsoon Fusion Jaguar Animal Print Coat (£85)

There is ever such a feint tint of berry to this leopard, sorry, jaguar print coat. I think the darker print stops it looking tacky (always a danger with leopard print) and I love that it's double breasted - it makes it seem better quality somehow! I can imagine myself all cosied up in it, hands in pockets this winter.

5. Forever 21 Metallic Dots Swing Dress (£19.75)

This is a bit of a random edition to what has been a very Autumnul looking selection of picks. It's pastel, it's summery and has a shimmer effect thanks to the metallic dots. OK, so I probably wouldn't be able to wear it until next Summer but I may just decide to throw over H&M jacket from Naomi's picks and brace my legs for the cold as I head to a Christmas party!

So, we got there in the end! What are your Autumn/Winter/late Summer picks??

Love Naomi and Chelsea xx

Thursday Three-Way: These boots were made for walking

As you know I got some really cute Oasis ankle boots for my birthday on Tuesday so I thought I'd dedicate this post to showing you just how versatile they are. I also want to point out that despite last week's post confessing to my fake blonde locks, I have actually gone back to brunette after threatening it for ages! Hope you like the new look!

1. Birthday Dinner

This outfit mixes a pretty dress with casual boots giving the perfect smart casual look. I think it's ideal for a meal with friends when you don't want to be too dressed up but want to make an effort!



This dress is a vintage dress from Urban Outfitters renewal collection a little while ago. I love vintage as it means it's unique and this particular style is right up my street! I love the little cap sleeves and the print on the bottom half. The waist is elasticated (like I said, ideal dinner outfit) and has a little sparkle to it.

Adding opaque tights (I sometimes wear two pairs for blackest black) stops it looking too dressy - plus it's extra warmth as it get cooler. The blue Miu Miu shoulder bag completes the look.

2. Casual coffee

This next look is a pretty casual look so ideal for just running errends in the day, going for a coffee, taking a quick look around the shops. You could even walk the dog in it as the boots are so comfy!





Collar. Collar. Collar. I need to get that word out of my system. We try to bring variety at Who's that girl? but I have yet to beat this collar addiction! This cute sage green shirt from Topshop has a lovely vintage style floral print and buttons up the back. Add a pair of blue skinny jeans which sit nicely just inside the boots and a slouchy Mulberry Alexa and it's the perfect laidback look! My little dog Beau loved it so much she had to join in for a picture!


3. Band boots

I love going to see live bands and I often have to stand at crowded gigs. Whilst Naomi may moan (did you realise her name is 'I moan' backwards?!) about her 5'9" height, she doesn't realise what a benefit this would be at such a gig (she tends to avoid these kinds of gigs generally).

At 5'5" I need the extra benefit of a heel to see over the ridiculously tall person who insists on standing right in front of me. However, when you know you're going to be standing for a couple of hours, comfort is key. Therefore, these boots are ideal for such an occasion!


These black, skinny, Diesel 'Grupee' jeans are very rock 'n' roll with their distressed and paint spattered appearance (if one more person asks me if I've been decorating...)
I love the design on the McQ t-shirt - it's very Sergeant Pepper! The blue denim jacket - which I like to customise with button badges - prevents this becoming a double denim disaster by contrasting with the jeans.
Finally, you don't want to be carting around a huge bag at a crowed gig so this little Vivienne Westwood bag is just the right size for phone and keys and very granny chic!

As you can see, I am mad about these boots which are also available in tan. There are similar pairs available at Office too so I see a trend emerging! Now you've seen how versatile they are, can you really say no?!
Bootfulls of love,
Chelsea x

Thursday Three Way: Floral Trousers

Hey Guys

Since this Thursday Three Way is coming to you in what should be the height of the Great British Summer, I thought I'd keep things cheery with some bright and floral trousers courtesy of high street fave Topshop.

Now some of you might be thinking that stepping out donning a pair of floral trousers might be a little too daring and best left to fashionistas such as Oliva Palermo but Who's that girl? says GO FOR IT and I'm here to show you not one, not two but THREE ways to wear these versatile threads.

1. Office Offering

Dressing for the office can be tricky and I guess whether you feel you can wear floral trousers to work will depend on where you work (maybe move on now to outfits 2 and 3 if you're a police officer). I have a pretty relaxed dress code (what does 'smart casual' even mean?) and so feel floral trousers are an ideal way to break away from office grey.



As you can see, this smart Zara blazer keeps the look tailored and office fit. The Topshop shirt is still smart underneath if you want to take the blazer off and the simple Next court shoes are stylish but comfortable enough to wear for a whole day at work. The outfit it completed with an oversized bag in the shape of a classic Mulberry bayswater.

2. Party Pants

For a night out I usually opt for a dress or skirt or possibly even shorts but these floral trousers can also be dressed up for a more party feel - plus it totes saves on fake tanning my pale legs ;-)



A sure fire way to dress up any outfit is the two S's - sparkles and skyscrapers and that's exactly what I've gone for here. These ASOS coral heels have a hidden platform and are super high but pretty comfortable. The embellished top is another ASOS buy and I love the way the geometric pattern contrasts with the florals. Finally, I went for a colour clash and added a purple Miu Miu clutch.

3. Shopping Slacks

Finally, why not pull on a t-shirt and some comfy flats and hit the shops in your floral trousers? I love this Levi's denim jacket over the top of my Sonia by Sonia Rykiel t-shirt. I totes thought I was cool by buying an original Levi's in San Francisco but was very disappointed to see the Made In China label! Sort it out, Levi's!

I also added this colourful Mitzy tote from Mulburry - plenty of room for hiding extra purchases!



I'm not the only who likes to rock a floral pant - check out super stylish Olivia Palermo in hers...
